"That experience showed me something bigger was at stake. I bicycled across New England, gave my life to Christ at a Mennonite evangelical event, and built a life—marriage, kids, a great family—until it ended in divorce. As the internet emerged, I left construction for the information world, meeting Angelina, a former domestic violence survivor. Together, we built a spectacular web tech company with a TV show, radio show, and magazine. But a car accident caused her traumatic brain injury, ending everything in a flash. I wasn’t handling the loss well, so she sent me to “find myself.” In 2005, I bicycled across America to "raise awareness for women in business, the same day Lance Armstrong rode into Paris". I repeated the journey twice more, learning that full commitment to a purpose brings providence—guidance, protection, and provision. In the tech industry, I earned eight world records, built ~35,000 websites, and retired into the chaos of COVID. Seeking God again, Angelina and I returned home to build this salt cave, a sacred space, bringing us to today."
I invite you, seekers, to play Initium and invest in building a corpus—a legacy to train AI and future robots like Optimus, preserving your quirkiness for generations, perhaps on Mars. If you have a location, consider hosting Initium for a dinner, men’s group, youth group, or small gathering. The curious thing is, seekers and explorers will find you—they’re already looking. By offering this, you’ll foster a sense of community, meaning, and purpose, moving from a young explorer to a sage with an elixir. As Blaise Pascal said, trust in providence and follow the way I began. Come play Initium—the beginning.
